When I heard that there is a park in Lima that is famous for its resident cat population, Parque Kennedy obviously went to the top of my list for places to visit.
It is a heartwarming sight seeing all the cats thriving and living their best lives in the park.
Many people come to the park just to see the cats and spend with them.
While a some people leave food, there are also volunteers that come daily to provide fresh food and water.
All over the park there are houses and beds that the cats use. In one corner, I even saw a collection of cardboard boxes!
And if you're worried about cleanliness, the park is closed every night and scrubbed down.
While I admired how well these cats were cared for, it also made me wonder if something like this could work in the US? My fear being that it would invite harm to the cats instead of offering them safety.
Have you ever been to Parque Kennedy in Lima or seen something similar?
